There's a song that's playing in my head
It replays every now and then
And it isn't showing any sign of rest
It's a condescending melody
Of someone trying desperately
To apprehend something they can't have
And it's obvious it's about me
But I'm past the point of listening
And it's alright to tell me that I'm wrong
Cuz I know you know better than this
And I should be getting over this
But I don't know why I can't let this go
You know that I can't help myself when I'm around you
You're like a magnet pushing me away
Whenever we face the same way
But when I turn around, that's when you stay
Is my mind just playing tricks on me?
Or is this really happening?
Cuz I don't know if I should just stay or leave
These mixed signals driving me insane
So I think it's best to walk away
And it's alright to tell me that I'm wrong
Cuz I know you know better than this
And I should be getting over this
But I don't know why I can't let this go
You know that I can't help myself when I'm around you
Now I'll try this time
To disappear out of your life
And maybe that'll get this rhyme
Out of my head
But I hear you say
That you just want for me to stay
And I just can't deny the way
I feel about you
And it's alright to tell me that I'm wrong
Cuz I know you know better than this
And I should be getting over this
But I don't know why I can't let this go
You know that I can't help myself when I'm around you
There's a new song playing in my head
The melody of old is dead
And I think that I prefer this one instead
